  1. IC50's are shown ± standard error.
  2. *Substrate Selectivity is defined as a relative measure between inhibiting phospho-ATF2 and phospho-MK2 = (ATF2 IC50)/(MK2 IC50). This quantity is distinct and separable from a compound's potency.
  3. **CMPD1 is unable to completely inhibit phospho-ATF2 within its solubility limits.
